Pros
Advancial is a great company to work for, I feel like the CEO really cares about the employee's opinion and well being. They have good benefits, the best products/rates, they throw great parties, and they give you a voucher to purchase Advancial branded clothes. A lot of the employees that work here are very happy.
Cons
Although the CEO is a great leader, he needs to be more in tune with what's going on at the lower levels. The lower leadership team have been working at Advancial so long they are clueless on how to actually lead. Most of them have never worked anywhere else so it's not their fault they don't know what they are doing, they really need to be trained and learn true leadership skills. While we worked through the pandemic we were told by our direct leader we should be grateful for a job. They gossip a lot, your personal/private business is all over the credit union, I know this because I knew some very personal things about a lot of employee's that I should not have known. Things that should be confidential are not, if you apply for a job EVERYONE knows that you applied, again I know this because almost every job that was posted I was told and knew who applied. Most of the employees are in certain positions because they've been there a long time, their friend is the hiring manager, or they are well liked. They are not qualified and have zero education to back it up. If you want to go nowhere fast this is the place for you.
